Movie Reviews

Charlotte Observer - 9/10 by Lawrence ToppmanFilmmakers have presented an unvarnished drama about Marshall University and the people who love it, and the results are inspirational.

ReelViews - 8/10 by James BerardinelliWe Are Marshall is precisely what one expects from a true sports story: it's uplifting and inspiring.

Baltimore Sun - 8/10 by Chris KaltenbachThe result is a movie that inspires without pontificating and plays on the heartstrings without pounding on them incessantly.

Miami Herald - 8/10 by Connie OgleEqually thrilling and wrenching, the film is an absolute must for anyone who loves sports and an eloquent explanation for those who don't understand what the fuss is about.

Seattle Post-Intelligencer - 7/10 by William ArnoldTo the movie's credit, the cast is better than average.
